re: A & F CEO explains why he doesn't like fat people

Abercrombie's corporate environment is very weird. The headquarters is in a town basicaly built from scratch by the guy that started the company, along with all the other limited brands, like victoria secret, etc... It's a very cultish type town for all the brands. each neighborhood is a majority of one brand or another. A&F has a transit bus system that goes around and picks people up from home, just like school busses. The busses are exactly like the stores, pumped with cologne and have a "hot" guy driving them.

Then at work they pretty much try to keep you there for 15-18 hr days, keeping you amped up on red bull and other energy drinks, all while playing the damn music and pumping in the cologne.

A friend of mine is a SVP of HR their and his wife is a lead designer
